Adds a new way to use the retro CPU chips: write your program in a
project file (.s / .asm / .hex / .bin), click Compile, click Run, and
the same chip emulates whatever you wrote. Same chip + different ROMs =
mini PC, calculator, LED demo, Kill-the-Bit game, etc.
SDK:
- velxio-chip.h gets two new host imports:
uint32_t vx_rom_size(void);
void vx_rom_read(uint32_t off, uint8_t* dst, uint32_t len);
CPU-emulator chips call these in chip_setup to pull their program out
of the host's romBytes property.
Frontend runtime:
- ChipRuntime accepts opts.romBytes (Uint8Array) and exposes the new
imports, copying bytes into chip memory on vx_rom_read.
- CustomChipPart pulls component.properties.romBytes (base64) and passes
it through.
- Component registry declares three new custom-chip properties:
romBytes (base64), programFile (matching project filename), and
programTarget (cpu name).
New programmable bundled chip:
- frontend/src/components/customChips/examples/intel/i8080-cpu.{c,chip.json}
Same clean-room 8080 emulator as i8080-repl/i8080-counter, but ROM is
loaded externally via vx_rom_*. Has 8 LEDs, 8 buttons, UART, 16 KB RAM,
32 KB of external ROM.
Backend:
- New /api/compile-rom endpoint and rom_compile service that turns
chip-program source into ROM bytes. 8080 ASM is assembled by the
in-tree two-pass assembler (moved to backend/app/services/asm8080.py).
Intel HEX records are parsed; raw .bin is passed through. Future targets
(z80, 8086, 4004) are scaffolded but not wired yet.
EditorToolbar:
- Compile button detects when the active file is .s/.asm/.hex/.bin and
routes to compile-rom instead of arduino-cli. The compiled bytes are
injected into every custom-chip on the canvas whose programFile property
matches the active filename (or is empty).
Example:
- /examples/i8080-killbits loads Dean McDaniel's 1975 Kill-the-Bit on
the programmable i8080-cpu chip. killbits.s is shipped as a project
file alongside sketch.ino; the user clicks Compile then Run and the
LED walks across 8 outputs, buttons kill it.

`PinTracer` signature is `(componentId, componentPinName) => number | null`
but the local `getArduinoPin` lambda only accepted one arg and used the
closure-captured `id`. When `createDefaultPinResolver` passed both args
(per the typed signature), JS bound the FIRST arg (the componentId) into
the lambda's single `componentPinName` parameter. `traceDetailed` then
looked up a pin literally named "rgb-led-1" on component "rgb-led-1",
returned null, and the resolver locked itself into 'FLOATING' state —
its onChange path never subscribed and the wokwi-rgb-led element's
ledRed/ledGreen/ledBlue stayed at 0 forever even as the SPICE side
correctly cycled through R, G, B, Y, C, M, W via analogWrite().
Same bug latent for any multi-pin component that goes through the
PinResolver path (multi-pin LEDs, RGB strips, 7-seg drivers, anything
that calls `getPinResolver(<pinName>)` for several pin names).
Fix: lambda now accepts both shapes — `getArduinoPin(pinName)` (legacy
single-arg used by every PartSimulationRegistry handler) AND
`getArduinoPin(componentId, pinName)` (PinTracer 2-arg form used by
createDefaultPinResolver / createSpiceResolvedPinResolver). Picks the
right componentId in either case.
Verified via the rgb-led example: ledRed/ledGreen/ledBlue now cycle
0→255→0 in sync with the SPICE node voltages on pins 9/10/11.

Adds a new BoardOptionsModal accessible from the EditorToolbar that exposes
per-board options (currently used for board-specific compile flags). Wires
the modal through:
- types/boardOptions.ts new BoardOptions shape
- types/board.ts BoardInstance gains `boardOptions` + `spiffsFiles`
- store/useSimulatorStore.ts boardOptions persisted in loadProjectState
- components/editor/EditorToolbar.tsx button to open the modal
- components/simulator/BoardOptionsModal.{tsx,css} the modal itself
- components/simulator/SimulatorCanvas.tsx passes the options through
- utils/projectPayload.ts board options serialised in saved projects
- pages/ProjectByIdPage.tsx re-includes the by-id loader needed for
project URLs that reference boards with
their persisted options.

Adds the public extension points the velxio-prod overlay uses to bind
real canvas-side I2C/SPI/UART models (BME280, future MCP23017, etc.)
to a running Pi guest's protocol shims:
- qemu_manager: set_pi_slave_handler(fn) / get_pi_slave_handler() for
pi_attach_slave + pi_detach_slave WebSocket messages. OSS image
leaves the hook unset so the messages are silently dropped.
- simulation route: parses the two new WS message types and forwards
them to the registered handler when present.
- RaspberryPi3Bridge: attachSlave(spec) / detachSlave(spec) frontend
side of the protocol.
- piSlaveScanner: at simulation start walks components + wires,
identifies I2C/SPI/UART peers wired to Pi protocol pins (40-pin
header physical-pin numbering), and emits one attach per
bus/address pair (deduped across SDA+SCL wires).
- RaspberryPiWorkspace: invokes the scanner once the bridge is open,
with retries to ride out the WS-still-connecting race.
- integration test: pi3_bme280_attach.py boots the Pi, pre-attaches a
BME280 via the slave handler, runs a host-side proto loop, runs
guest python smbus2.read_byte_data(0x76, 0xD0) and asserts the
console reads back CHIP=0x60.

The user reported the default editor canvas — Arduino Uno + LED +
220Ω resistor — was correctly powered (1.84 V at the LED anode,
14 mA through the diode) but the LED visual stayed dark. Only the
built-in pin-13 LED on the wokwi-arduino-uno element lit up.
Root cause: ngspice's WASM build truncates branch-current vector
keys at the first hyphen. A sense source named V_led-builtin_sense
ends up exposed under a key like v_led#branch rather than the
expected v_led-builtin_sense#branch. CircuitSimulationService and
BasicParts.ts both look up the FULL key, miss, and the LED's
brightness update treats raw as undefined → digital-fallback path
runs but the SPICE memo timestamp is fresh so HOLD keeps zero
brightness. Visible symptom: a perfectly conducting LED that never
lights.
Fix in two places:
- Default canvas (useSimulatorStore.ts): rename 'led-builtin' /
'r-builtin' to 'led_builtin' / 'r_builtin' (and the matching
wire ids).
- DynamicComponent.tsx makeNewComponent: the id template was
'metadata.id-timestamp-rand' producing hyphens for every
user-added component too. Switched to underscores, AND replace
any hyphens already in metadata.id (e.g. 'led-bar-graph') so
the prefix doesn't reintroduce the bug.
Existing saved projects whose ids contain hyphens are not migrated
here — those will keep the visual bug until either the operator
edits the components or we add a sanitisation step inside
componentToSpice + BasicParts. The next follow-up commit can add
that if you confirm this default-canvas fix works.
Adds 17 chips from the test/test_intel clean-room research to the Custom
Chip gallery, all sourced from manufacturer datasheets and validated by
the existing 129-test vitest harness (CPUDIAG end-to-end for the 8080,
ZEXDOC for the Z80).
CPUs: 4004, 4040, 8080, 8086, Z80 (categoria retro-cpu)
Bus chips: rom-32k, ram-64k, rom-1m, latch-8282, 4001-rom, 4002-ram,
8255-ppi, 8251-usart, 8259-pic, 8253-pit (retro-bus)
Two bundled "mini-computer" demos under retro-bundle that drop on the
canvas as a single chip and run real 8080 code out of an embedded ROM:
* i8080-repl 8080 + RAM + ROM + UART, prints a banner and an
"uptime ticks: 0xNN" counter every ~50 ms via a real
DCR/JNZ busy-wait. Visible in Serial Monitor.
* i8080-counter 8080 + RAM + ROM + 8 LED pins + 2 button pins.
Counts up in binary on BTN_INC, clears on BTN_RST.
Two example projects under /examples reuse these chips end-to-end:
* /examples/i8080-banner-streamer
* /examples/i8080-button-counter
The bundled chips inline a 328 / 34-byte 8080 ROM produced by a new
two-pass 8080 assembler in Python (scripts/asm8080.py) from the .s
sources in scripts/. Both ROMs are pre-assembled and committed under
scripts/*.txt so contributors can rebuild deterministically.

Two related correctness fixes that make the simulator's realism
match what users actually see.
1. circuitVerifier was running pre-flight against the IDLE circuit
(every pin LOW). A Blink sketch is going to write pin 13 HIGH
eventually — at which point a missing series resistor produces a
~500 mA spike through the diode. But because pre-flight ran with
pin 13 LOW the led-overcurrent rule never fired, and the user
sailed through Run only to see the LED stay mysteriously dark on
the canvas.
The verifier now forces every digital pin connected to a load to
HIGH = vcc, the worst case any well-defined sketch will eventually
impose. The existing rules (led-overcurrent, resistor-overpower,
short-circuit) now fire correctly and the existing
CircuitVerificationModal blocks Run until the user adds a proper
current limiter or chooses Run Anyway.
Pins that are inputs-only (a pull-up + button) get over-driven
here too, but the rules tolerate that — a pull-up at 5 V draws
~0.5 mA, well below all thresholds. A circuit that would actually
fault under HIGH is flagged.
2. LED simulator was crashing visually on non-finite ngspice branch
currents. A degenerate diode (no series R) makes ngspice return
NaN, which fell through 'raw !== undefined && current > 1e-6' as
false and never triggered the digital fallback. Now we check
Number.isFinite(raw) before trusting it — non-finite returns
route to the digital fallback so the LED at least lights visually
when its driver pin is HIGH (the user still sees the verifier
warning that the real-world circuit is wrong, but Run Anyway is
not a black screen).
PiTerminal didn't call term.focus() on mount, so xterm.js stayed
passive — onData only fires when the DOM element has focus. Users
saw the boot prompt but their keystrokes went to whatever element
held focus when they clicked Run (canvas, code editor), never
reaching the bridge. Calling focus() right after fit() makes the
prompt receive input the moment it's visible.
The qemu_manager change adds INFO-level logging when serial_input
WebSocket messages reach send_serial_bytes — useful diagnostic for
future Pi3 input problems (proves whether bytes reached the backend
before we look at TTY / kernel / PL011 wiring).
Clicking a second photoresistor (or any second sensor of the same
metadataId) showed the previously-clicked sensor's slider value because
the panel was reused across clicks and its useState only ran once. The
mount useEffect also unconditionally dispatched config defaults, which
would have wiped any prior customisation if we naively remounted.
Three changes:
- SensorUpdateRegistry caches the last-dispatched values per componentId
(and clears them on unregister) so the panel has a place to read from.
- SensorControlPanel hydrates from that cache on mount, falling back to
config defaults only when the sensor has never been touched. The
default-dispatch useEffect skips when cached values already exist.
- SimulatorCanvas keys the panel on sensorControlComponentId, forcing a
fresh mount when the user switches sensors — without that, hydration
wouldn't run on subsequent opens.
The previous fix opened the SensorControlPanel on a desktop sensor
click during simulation, but the slider thumb still couldn't be
dragged — the canvas pan handler claims any left mousedown that isn't
explicitly stopped, so grabbing the slider was panning the canvas.
The panel only stopped click events. We now stop mousedown and
pointerdown on the panel wrapper as well, so input[type=range] gets
its native drag and the pan handler stays out.
Commit 77a63ca made handleComponentMouseDown return early while the
simulator was running so clicks on pushbuttons / switches / pots would
reach the wokwi-element shadow DOM. That was correct for components
whose interaction lives inside the Web Component, but wrong for sensors
(photoresistor, DHT22, MPU6050, NTC, gas, flame, sound, joystick, tilt,
PIR, ultrasonic, BMP280) whose only interaction is the React-side
SensorControlPanel we open ourselves. Their mousedowns were bubbling to
the canvas pan handler — the user saw the grab cursor and no panel.
Touch already handled this correctly: tap-up checks SENSOR_CONTROLS and
opens the panel even while running. The mouse path now mirrors that —
if interactionRunning is true we only short-circuit for non-sensors.
Mobile was working fine; desktop had a string of issues that surfaced
together on the Pico Doom example after the simulator/wiring fixes.
1. Selection action bar appeared during simulation, intercepting button
presses. handleComponentMouseDown unconditionally called
e.stopPropagation() + setSelectedComponentId, so clicking a wokwi-
pushbutton on a running canvas ate the mousedown — the
button-press event never fired and the floating Rotate/Delete bar
popped up on top of the button. Now: while running, the handler
returns early so the event propagates to the underlying component
and the canvas stays read-only.
2. The selection action bar was always visible on desktop. It was
introduced as the primary delete UI for touch devices (no Delete
key, no right-click), but it kept showing on mouse-and-keyboard
too — covering pins and intercepting clicks. Now gated on
isTouchDevice (already wired via useIsCoarsePointer) AND !running.
Desktop users keep Delete key + right-click context menu for the
same operations.
3. Left-click drag on the canvas background didn't pan. Pan was
limited to middle/right click. Now left-click on empty canvas
panning works too (component mousedowns stopPropagation so they
still drag the component, not the camera). Wiring mode keeps left
click for waypoint drops, so the pan only kicks in when not in
wire mode and not in a property dialog. Matches Figma / Miro /
draw.io convention.
Build verified.

Production crash on the simulator page after init:
Uncaught ReferenceError: traceDetailed is not defined
at Z (index.js)
at Object.attachEvents (index.js)
Root cause (introduced in 27c5966 Phase 1b skeleton): `traceDetailed`
was declared as a `const` inside `getArduinoPin` but called from the
sibling `getPinResolver`, which is a separate inner function. Vite dev
sometimes inlined the call differently so the bug only surfaced in the
minified Rollup bundle. Reproduces with any part that has an Arduino
pin reachable through wires (i.e. almost every canvas component).
Fix: hoist `traceDetailed` (and its `PASSIVE_PIN_PAIRS` /
`PRESET_TO_BASE` data) to module scope. Pure function takes the
simulator state as an argument. Both `getArduinoPin` (now a thin
wrapper) and `getPinResolver` call it correctly.
No behavioural change. 1853 tests still pass, build:docker green.
Replaces the Phase 1b vcc/2-flat threshold with per-logic-family
Vil/Vih thresholds + Schmitt-trigger hysteresis where applicable.
SPICE-resolved digital reads now match what real ICs actually do —
TTL noise margins, CMOS rail-to-rail, 74HC14 Schmitt hysteresis,
LVCMOS33 vs CMOS-5V interop.
New module: simulation/LogicFamilies.ts
- LogicFamily interface (vcc, vil, vih, vil_schmitt?, vih_schmitt?,
cin_pF, vol_max?, voh_min?, output_impedance_ohm?)
- FAMILIES catalog: TTL, CMOS-5V, CMOS-5V-SCHMITT, CMOS-5V-TTL-INPUTS,
LVCMOS33, AVR_HC, CMOS-3.3V — all sourced from TI / ATmega328P /
JEDEC datasheets.
- BOARD_FAMILY: per-board lookup. Uno/Mega/Nano/ATtiny → AVR_HC,
ESP32 family + Pi Pico → LVCMOS33, fall back to AVR_HC for
unknown boards.
- getBoardLogicFamily() and getLogicFamilyById() helpers.
PinResolver:
- SpiceResolvedConfig docstring rewritten with Phase 3 wording.
- New `configFromLogicFamily()` builder — picks Schmitt thresholds
when the family declares them, falls back to vih/vil otherwise.
DynamicComponent:
- When the trace crosses an active device, the SPICE-resolved
resolver is now built with the OWNER BOARD's logic family
instead of vcc/2. Hysteresis comes through automatically for
boards whose native family is Schmitt-capable.
- Phase 3 continued: per-component logicFamily override from
components-metadata.json (so e.g. a 74HC14 placed on an Arduino
Uno gets Schmitt thresholds even though the BOARD is AVR_HC).
Tests:
- logic-families.test.ts (new) — 19/19 passing.
Covers catalog sanity (vil < vih, vol_max ≤ vil, voh_min ≥ vih),
per-board lookup, Schmitt vs non-Schmitt config, noise rejection
behavior of 74HC14 Schmitt resolver, last-state-wins behavior
of CMOS-5V dead band.
- Phase 0 + Phase 1b regression: 16/16 still passing.
- tsc --noEmit on new files: clean.
No deploy in this commit — staged for end-of-session rebuild.
Adds the architecture pieces for mixed-mode coupling without yet
driving the SPICE engine. Components on a path that crosses an active
device (BJT, MOSFET, op-amp, diode, regulator, LED, relay) now route
through a new SPICE-resolved PinResolver variant; everything else
keeps the digital fast-path from Phase 0.
What ships:
- simulation/PinResolver.ts
* `isActiveDevice(metadataId)` predicate + `ACTIVE_DEVICE_PREFIXES`
list (BJTs, MOSFETs, op-amps, diodes, regulators, LED, relay).
* `DetailedPinTrace` / `DetailedPinTracer` types — the trace
function now reports whether it crossed an active device, on
top of the Arduino pin number.
* `createSpiceResolvedPinResolver()` — new factory; reads voltages
from a `SpiceVoltageSource` and threshold-converts to HIGH/LOW
with hysteresis (thresholdHigh != thresholdLow → Schmitt-like).
- simulation/spice/MixedModeScheduler.ts (new)
* Singleton orchestrator that holds the NgSpiceInteractive engine
and the SpiceVoltageSource subscription registry.
* `start()` / `stop()` / `dispose()` lifecycle.
* `subscribe()` + `getCurrentVoltage()` implement SpiceVoltageSource.
* `onMcuPinChange()` placeholder for the alter+tran event loop.
* Skeleton: subscribers register but never receive events yet.
Phase 1b continued will wire NgSpiceInteractive into the loop.
- components/DynamicComponent.tsx
* Trace function extended with `traceDetailed()` that tracks
whether the BFS crossed an active component.
* PinResolver factory branches: active-path → SPICE-resolved (uses
the scheduler), digital-only → existing default impl. Default
threshold = vcc/2 with no hysteresis; Phase 3 will replace with
per-logic-family Vil/Vih.
Phase 0 LED behavior intact (digital path). Phase 1b SPICE-resolved
path falls back to FLOATING until Phase 1b continued wires the engine.
Tests:
- pin-resolver-phase1b.test.ts (new) — 8/8 passing.
Covers isActiveDevice for every BJT/MOSFET/op-amp/diode/regulator
metadata id; SPICE-resolved resolver state reporting, threshold
conversion, hysteresis dead-band, unsubscribe.
- pin-resolver.test.ts (Phase 0) — 8/8 still passing (no regression).
- tsc --noEmit on the new files: clean.
No deploy in this commit — staged for end-of-session rebuild + push
per user preference.
Decouple per-component handlers from direct pinManager.onPinChange +
getArduinoPinHelper subscriptions by introducing a small PinResolver
interface. The Phase 0 default impl is functionally identical to the
legacy path — it just routes through PinResolver instead of being
inlined in every handler. Zero behavior change.
The point is to make Phase 1 possible: swap the default impl for a
SPICE-resolved version that watches node voltages and threshold-
converts to digital events, without rewriting every handler.
Files:
- simulation/PinResolver.ts (new) — interface + default factory
- parts/PartSimulationRegistry.ts — additive 5th arg to
attachEvents (getPinResolver?), legacy 4-arg signatures keep
working unchanged
- components/DynamicComponent.tsx — assembles the PinResolver from
the wire-trace logic + PinManager subscriptions + board Vcc
lookup, passes it as the 5th arg to attachEvents
- parts/BasicParts.ts — LED handler migrated as proof of concept
(resolver-first path, legacy 4-arg path kept as fallback for
tests / unmigrated harnesses)
- __tests__/pin-resolver.test.ts (new) — 8 unit tests covering
FLOATING / GND / HIGH / LOW / GPIO subscriptions / unsubscribe
Vitest: 8/8 pin-resolver tests pass. 1300+ existing tests still pass;
the one pre-existing flake (spice-rectifier-live-repro timing out >60s)
is unrelated to this commit — verified by running the test on plain
HEAD without these changes (same timeout).
See project/sim-mixedmode/phase-00-pin-resolver.md (in the velxio-prod
repo) for full phase context.
The canonical "Arduino pin → resistor → BJT base, BJT collector →
load" pattern for multiplexed 7-segment clocks was breaking in the
simulator: getArduinoPinHelper('COM.1') couldn't resolve through
the transistor, so the multiplex-aware 7-segment driver thought no
digit-select pin was wired and fell back to "all digits enabled".
Result: every display in the multiplex array rendered the same
rapidly-changing pattern → user-visible flicker.
Fix: add the NPN/PNP BJTs to the PASSIVE_PIN_PAIRS map with
[collector, base] — the trace function continues from B when it
arrives at C (and vice versa). That makes the Arduino pin driving
the base reported as the controller of the collector — exactly the
relationship the user's multiplex code expects.
Conventions covered:
- NPN (2n2222, bc547, 2n3055): Arduino HIGH → transistor on →
COM pulled LOW → common-cathode digit enabled. Our 7-segment
driver treats "digit pin HIGH = enabled" which matches.
- PNP (2n3906, bc557): inverse logic. We expose the same pin
mapping; users writing PNP-driver code will see the polarity
behave inverted, which is what real hardware does too.
This is a one-line shortcut, not a true active-device model. We're
not simulating BJT saturation, β, base current, or PNP polarity —
just reporting "this Arduino pin is the boss of this collector".
That's enough for the multiplexing use case and the only place
getArduinoPinHelper is consulted today.
The 'raspberry-pi-pico' boardKind used to render <NanoRP2040> — a
<wokwi-nano-rp2040-connect> Web Component. That's a completely
different board: it has pin labels D2..D13 / A0..A7 / 5V / VIN,
and a horizontal 168×68 layout. The actual Raspberry Pi Pico has
GP0..GP28 / 3V3 / VBUS / VSYS and is vertical-narrow (105×264).
Symptom: every wire in a Pi-Pico example that referenced a real Pico
pin (GP10, GP18, 3V3, GND.5, etc.) silently fell back to (0, 0) in
pinPositionCalculator — the calculator looks up `element.pinInfo`
by name, doesn't find GP* on the Nano RP2040 Connect component, and
returns the board's top-left corner. The Pico Doom example was the
loudest casualty (cables to the corner instead of the TFT), but
seven other GP-style examples (pico-7segment, pico-button-led,
pico-rgb, pico-dht22, pico-doom-raycaster, plus pico-ntc/pico-joystick
which use A0/A1 aliases that map to GP26/GP27) all silently routed
to nowhere.
Fix is a two-liner: 'raspberry-pi-pico' shares the same case as
'pi-pico-w' (both use the same Web Component because the Pico and
Pico W are pin-compatible). BOARD_SIZE updated to 105×264 to match
the real Pico footprint. Dropped the now-unused NanoRP2040 import.
Known regression — eleven older examples (pico-blink, pico-serial-led-
control, pico-i2c-scanner, pico-i2c-rtc-read, pico-i2c-eeprom-rw,
pico-spi-loopback, pico-adc-read, pico-multi-protocol, pico-hcsr04,
pico-pir, pico-servo) were wired against D2..D12 of the wrong board.
Their wires will now land at (0,0). Those examples' sketches were
written for the Pi Pico (use LED_BUILTIN = GP25, A0..A3 = GP26..GP29)
so the wires were ALREADY electrically nonsense — they connected
external components to pins the sketch never touched. Visible bug
trades silent bug; both need a follow-up commit to rewire each one
to the Pico pin its sketch actually expects.
Combined with the earlier MADCTL fix (6edc715) and the SPI adapter
fix (6a7b721), Pico Doom should now finally render end-to-end on
velxio.dev.

Two unrelated minimap issues from user feedback:
1. Click on the red viewport rect was sometimes teleporting the
canvas instead of starting a drag. Cause: insideRect compared
click coords against the UNCLAMPED rectX/rectY/rectW/rectH, but
the rendered rect uses clampedX/clampedY (which differ when the
user pans past a world edge). The user clicked on the visible
red rect, but the logical rect was off-minimap → insideRect
returned false → fell through to the teleport branch.
Fix: compute clamped values once at the top, render and hit-test
against the same values. Drag now only fires when the click
really lands inside the visible rect.
2. The 140x105 default still ate too much canvas at typical zoom.
Drop to 100x75 (12% of world width by 2.5%, same proportions as
the world). Mobile breakpoint dropped to 90x68 to stay
proportionally smaller on phones.
User feedback: the default 200x150 minimap eats too much of the
canvas-content area on a typical 13"/14" laptop, and the white
viewport rectangle against a dark canvas blends with the boards
once enough components are placed.
Drop the desktop default down to the size we already use on phones
(140x105 — the mobile media query still wins on screens ≤720px so
that block continues to apply identically). At this size the rect
becomes the focal indicator of where you are in the world; switch
its outline to brand red (#ef4444 — Tailwind red-500) with a faint
red fill so it pops without overpowering the boards (which stay
brand blue).
Body of the work is two number changes + two color tokens; the
rest of the component logic (pointer routing, world rendering,
clamping) is untouched.
Phase 4 of the OSS / pro split. The OSS image has no auth and no
server-side persistence — without this commit, the user's workspace
was ephemeral (lost on tab refresh). `.vlx` is a single-file JSON
snapshot of the entire workspace (boards, file groups, components,
wires, active board id) that the user can save to disk and reload
later.
New: utils/vlxFile.ts
- buildVlxPayload() / buildVlxBlob() — pure snapshot of the current
editor + simulator stores.
- triggerDownloadVlx({ name? }) — anchor-click download with a safe
filename. Returns the filename actually used.
- parseVlxFile(File) — async reader + validator. Checks
format === "velxio-project", version <= 1, and the required
arrays/objects are present. Throws VlxParseError with a human-
readable message on any issue.
- importVlxFile(File) — convenience wrapper that parses AND calls
useSimulatorStore.loadProjectState() with the result.
Format intentionally mirrors the server's POST /api/projects body so
a Pro user can export-from-pro and import-into-OSS losslessly (and
vice-versa once Pro adds an Export button — out of scope here).
lib/proSaveAction.ts: the default (no-overlay) implementation now
calls triggerDownloadVlx() instead of console.info'ing about the
missing handler. The Pro overlay still wins via installSaveActionImpl()
— Save in Pro keeps opening SaveProjectModal. The Save button in OSS
now actually saves.
components/editor/FileExplorer.tsx: new "Open .vlx" button next to
New + Save. Opens a hidden file input; confirms with the user before
replacing the workspace (loadProjectState is destructive); surfaces
VlxParseError messages via window.alert.
Verified with both builds:
- OSS-only: triggerSaveAction → download .vlx; FileExplorer shows
3 buttons (New, Open, Save).
- OSS + overlay: Pro's installSaveActionImpl overrides — Save opens
SaveProjectModal as before. Open .vlx still works (independent
button, not part of the save flow).

Phase 3 of the OSS / pro split — frontend side. Phase 2 already moved
the auth/DB stack out of the OSS backend; this commit does the same
for the React app. After this, the OSS image is editor + simulator
+ landing + docs only.
What moved to the private overlay (pro/frontend/src/pro/):

store/useAuthStore.ts
hooks/autoSaveImpl.ts
New seams added so OSS components stay decoupled:
* lib/proRoutes.ts — registerProRoutes()/useProRoutes() via
useSyncExternalStore. mountPro() injects the moved pages at runtime;
App.tsx subscribes to the registry, so registration after the
initial render re-renders without a Not-Found flash.
* lib/proSession.ts — registerSessionCheck()/triggerSessionCheck().
App.tsx fires this on mount instead of useAuthStore.checkSession();
pure OSS no-ops.
* lib/proSaveAction.ts — installSaveActionImpl()/triggerSaveAction().
EditorPage's Save button dispatches through this; the overlay
decides whether to show SaveProjectModal or LoginPromptModal based
on auth state. In OSS without an overlay it's a no-op today; in
Phase 4 of the split it becomes the .vlx Export entry point.
OSS-side rewrites:
* App.tsx drops the 8 page imports + 8 route entries; uses
triggerSessionCheck() instead of useAuthStore directly.
* AppHeader.tsx drops the user/login/register block entirely. The
header-auth slot (introduced in Phase 1) now stays empty in OSS
and gets filled by the overlay's portal mount.
* EditorPage.tsx drops useAuthStore + SaveProjectModal +
LoginPromptModal imports. The Save handler is now triggerSaveAction().
* LandingPage.tsx drops the dead UserMenu component (defined but
never rendered) + its useAuthStore imports.
* main.tsx drops the side-effect import of hooks/autoSaveImpl — the
impl lives in pro now and self-registers via mountPro().
Build config:
* vite.config.ts adds @velxio alias → src/. Lets the overlay import
upstream modules (lib/proRoutes etc.) by stable name regardless of
whether it's symlinked (local dev) or COPYed (Docker).
* preserveSymlinks now gated on VITE_PRO_BUILD only (not on serve
mode). Needed so Rollup keeps the overlay logically inside src/pro/
during local junction-based builds.
Build verification:
* OSS-only: 20-ish routes, no /login, /admin, /:username — 285 SEO
pages prerendered. Bundle drops ~80-120 KB.
* OSS + overlay: full 38 routes (30 upstream + 8 from registerProRoutes),
HeaderAuth dropdown injected via slot, save action wired to the
overlay's modal flow.

First phase of the OSS / pro split. Goal: open the seams so the auth/DB/admin
stack can move into the private overlay (Phase 2-3) without the routes that
stay in OSS (compile, libraries, simulation, iot_gateway) having to know.
Backend
-------
* New app/core/hooks.py — registry for record_compile, get_current_user_id,
and lifespan startup tasks. Each hook is a no-op by default; overlays
call register_* in register_pro(app) to plug in a real implementation.
* compile.py now imports only from app.core.hooks. Drops the direct deps on
app.core.dependencies, app.database.session, app.models.user, and
app.services.metrics. Route signatures use `Depends(get_current_user_id)`
instead of `Depends(get_current_user)`; the metric helper passes user_id
through rather than a User instance.
* compile_chip.py drops the unused _current_user Depends entirely.
* main.py wraps the auth/DB stack import in try/except. When it succeeds
(today's behavior on velxio.dev), an adapter bridges record_compile and
get_current_user_id to the existing app.services.metrics + dependencies,
and the create_all + ALTER TABLE migration block runs via a registered
lifespan_startup hook. When it fails (the post-Phase-2 OSS image), main
logs "running stateless" and skips registering anything — the routes
still load and behave as no-ops for metrics + always-anonymous for auth.
Frontend
--------
* useAutoSaveProject becomes a skeleton: one useState + one useEffect that
delegates to an installed AutoSaveImpl. installAutoSaveImpl() replaces
the impl without changing hook count, so React's rules-of-hooks stay
satisfied even after the impl moves out of OSS.
* New hooks/autoSaveImpl.ts holds the original logic (debouncing, dirty
detection, owner eligibility, fetch keepalive on unload), refactored to
emit() instead of useState. It self-registers at module load; main.tsx
imports it for the side effect.
* AppHeader wraps the entire user-vs-login UI in a data-velxio-slot
="header-auth" boundary. Today the OSS UI still renders inside the slot
— the overlay can portal-inject additional items now, and in Phase 3
the slot becomes the sole owner of header auth UX.
Behavior is identical on velxio.dev (pro overlay imports everything
successfully, every adapter wires up). The change is purely structural:
deleting the auth/DB modules tomorrow no longer crashes OSS at import.

Two minimal hooks so the velxio-pro agent overlay can offer a 'Diagnose
this compile failure with AI' affordance without touching upstream
component internals:
- New store/useCompileLogsStore: holds the editor's compile output as
Zustand state instead of local React useState in EditorPage. The
setter accepts both a value and an updater fn so the EditorToolbar
callers that used setCompileLogs(prev => [...prev, log]) keep
working without changes.
- CompilationConsole header now renders a
<div data-velxio-slot='compile-console-actions' /> when errorCount
> 0. The pro overlay mounts a 'Diagnose with AI' button into this
slot via slotMounter. Empty in the OSS image — no behaviour change.
EditorPage replaces its local useState<CompilationLog[]> with the store
selector. The downstream prop-drilled setCompileLogs callers (toolbar,
sub-toolbars) keep their signature.
Companion commit lands the button + diagnostic prompt builder in the
velxio-prod overlay.

The /pricing page exists (PricingPlaceholder upstream, real PricingPage
portal-mounted by the private overlay) but had no entry in the top nav.
Adds 'pricing' to header.nav in all 9 locales (de, en, es, fr, it, ja,
pt-br, ru, zh-cn), wires the Link in AppHeader between About and Blog,
and mirrors the link in the landing-page footer.

Renders a 200×150 px overview of the whole 4000×3000 world in the
bottom-right corner of .canvas-content. Boards show as filled blue
rectangles, components as small white dots, and the current viewport
appears as an outlined rectangle the user can drag to pan.
Geometry mirrors the canvas's existing pan+zoom model:
SCALE_X = MINIMAP_W / WORLD_W = 0.05
rect.x = -pan.x / zoom * SCALE_X
rect.w = viewport.width / zoom * SCALE_X
Two interaction modes, decided at pointerdown by hit-testing the
rectangle:
- Inside the rect → drag-pan: keep updating pan as the pointer
moves, with delta in minimap-px converted back to world units
by (delta / SCALE) * zoom.
- Outside the rect → teleport: re-center the viewport on the
clicked world point.
Pan is clamped so the viewport rectangle never escapes the minimap
bounds (matches the canvas's implicit world boundaries at 4000×3000).
ResizeObserver on the canvas-content keeps the rect accurate when
the user toggles side panels or resizes the window.
Mobile: at ≤720 px width the minimap shrinks to 140×105 px so it
doesn't eat too much of the canvas. Touch events go through the same
pointerdown / pointermove path — no separate touch code path needed
thanks to Pointer Events.
Bundles with: matching CSS file, import + JSX hookup inside
.canvas-content's render tree.
Closes the long-standing "components are frozen during simulation"
complaint. Once the user clicked Run, interactive wokwi parts
(pushbuttons, slide-switches, potentiometers …) called
stopPropagation in their bubble-phase mousedown handlers and the
canvas's React onMouseDown never fired — so dragging them to
rearrange the layout was impossible without first stopping the sim.
Two surgical changes:
1. DynamicComponent.tsx switches the wrapper from `onMouseDown` to
`onMouseDownCapture`. Capture phase runs before the inner
wokwi-element, so the canvas sees the mousedown regardless of
stopPropagation downstream. The existing posDiff < 5 check in
mouseup keeps disambiguating click vs drag: a click still falls
through to the wokwi-element's own mousedown/up for button-press
semantics, only sustained movement promotes to a drag.
2. SimulatorCanvas.tsx's touch path used to early-return on touchstart
when interactionRunning + .web-component-container, killing any
chance of a touch-drag. Now we remember the touch's start position
in pendingTouchDragRef and let the browser keep synthesizing mouse
events for the wokwi-element. If the finger drifts past
DRAG_PROMOTE_THRESHOLD_PX (8 px) onTouchMove cancels the
passthrough and starts a real component drag — dispatching a
synthesized mouseup on the original target so the wokwi-element
doesn't stay visually pressed mid-drag.
In digital / analog board-less examples the user clicks a slide-switch
or pushbutton expecting it to flip its state. Until this commit the
component property dialog opened instead and the click never reached
the wokwi-element underneath, so:
- The user couldn't change switch state through the canvas at all.
- With no state change the SPICE solver kept the old netlist, and
every downstream LED stayed dark — the symptom that read as
"voltages change but no LED lights".
Root cause was the gating: SimulatorCanvas only suppressed the
property dialog when `useSimulatorStore.running` was true, but that
flag is bound to an MCU's start/stop. Board-less circuits have no MCU
to start so `running` is permanently false, even when the SPICE engine
has been live since the example loaded.
New derived flag `interactionRunning = running || (boards.length === 0
&& !electricalPaused)` — true whenever the user is in an "interactive"
session, MCU or SPICE-only. Used in three click-handling paths:
- SimulatorCanvas mouse-up handler: dialog is suppressed and the
click falls through to the wokwi-element (line 1395).
- SimulatorCanvas touch-start passthrough: same for touch (line 474).
- SimulatorCanvas touch-end short-tap: same for tap (line 774).
Also propagated to DynamicComponent so the cursor becomes pointer (not
move) for interactive parts in board-less mode — visual cue that the
user can click instead of just drag.

Block 9 added `const { t } = useTranslation()` at line 50 but forgot the
matching `import { useTranslation } from 'react-i18next'`. The component
then crashes the moment a user clicks a sensor on the canvas with
`Uncaught ReferenceError: useTranslation is not defined`, taking the
whole simulator render tree down.
A user reported on Discord: "the Velxio Console doesn't update anything,
it just waits until the very end and displays everything in one go".
True for the async compile path — /compile/status only carried `state`
and the final `result`, so the editor's CompilationConsole stayed empty
during the 5-7 minute cold ESP-IDF builds and dumped 1500 lines at once
when the build finished.
This wires live build output through the whole stack.
Backend (espidf_compiler.py)
- New _run_with_streaming() helper. When a progress_callback is provided
it spawns the subprocess via Popen + stdout/stderr drain threads and
invokes the callback line-by-line. When None it falls back to the
existing subprocess.run(capture_output=True) one-shot path so the
unit-test code that doesn't care about live output is unaffected.
- compile() and _compile_in_dir() take an optional ProgressCallback.
- _run_cmake / _run_ninja closures now go through _run_with_streaming
with that callback. cmake configure (~2-5 s) + ninja (~5-300+ s) both
stream now; the ninja output is the one users actually want to watch.
Backend (compile.py)
- _compile_job seeds COMPILE_JOBS[id]['stdout_buffer'] = '' and defines
on_progress_line(line) which appends to it. Buffer capped at 256 KB
(tail kept) so a runaway build can't OOM the FastAPI process.
- The buffer is preserved on both the success and the error path so
late polls still see the log even after state transitions to
done/error.
- /compile/status now returns the buffer as a `stdout` field.
CompileStatusResponse gains the field with default '' so old clients
that don't read it still work.
Frontend (compilation.ts)
- compileCode() takes a 4th argument: optional CompileProgress
callback fired every poll while state ∈ {pending, running}. Carries
the cumulative stdout (caller computes deltas) plus elapsed seconds.
- Surfaces the new `stdout` field of /compile/status and forwards it
to the callback. Errors thrown from the callback are swallowed —
a faulty UI hook must never break the polling loop.
Frontend (EditorToolbar.tsx)
- Both compileCode() call sites (Run and Compile-All) now pass an
onProgress callback. It tracks `lastStreamedLen` per-compile, splits
each new delta on newlines, and appends them as `info`-typed
CompilationLog entries via setCompileLogs. The Compile-All flow
prefixes each line with the board label so multi-board builds stay
readable.
- After the build settles, the existing parseCompileResult call still
runs and appends the structured analysis on top of the live stream
— that's where FAILED-block detection + the `error`-typed entries
that drive the auto-switch-to-errors filter live.
Net effect on the user complaint: cold ESP-IDF builds now show the
ninja [N/1483] progress lines streaming into the console as they
happen, instead of staring at an empty panel for 5-7 minutes.

This commit closes the cluster of small editor surfaces that touch
the active simulation experience. Every visible control on these
panels now reads from t() keys.
Translated:
- Oscilloscope panel (title, Add Channel button + tooltip, Time/div
label, Run / Pause toggle copy + tooltips, Clear, empty-state copy
+ hint, per-channel remove tooltip).
- ComponentPropertyDialog (close, pin-roles header with two
wire-mode variants, Arduino Pin label, rotate / delete buttons +
the inline confirm-delete prompt with name interpolation).
- SelectionActionBar (toolbar aria-label, Rotate / Delete / Deselect
with kind-aware delete labels for wire / component / board).
- CompilationConsole (Output title, error / warning badge counts
with i18next pluralisation, filter dropdown, autoscroll label,
Clear + Close icon tooltips, empty-state).
- CustomChipDialog (header with chipName interpolation, Examples /
Editor tabs, Attributes panel header, compile status messages
including the "✓ Compiled — N KB" success line, footer
Cancel / Save & Place / Compile first buttons).
- SensorControlPanel (close button).
- BoardPickerModal (Add Board heading).
Translation pipeline
- en.json gets the new keys hand-curated.
- The 8 non-English locales were auto-translated via DeepSeek
using the existing scripts/translate-i18n.mjs pipeline (one
--force run, ~1 min total). Output validated with sameShape()
before write so any LLM-introduced key drift would have failed
loudly.
Quality note
- DeepSeek's translations now cover the entire bundle, including
earlier hand-translated content. Tone may differ slightly from
the prior hand passes but the meaning is consistent and brand /
technical terms (Velxio, ngspice-WASM, ATmega328P, ESP32-C3,
etc.) are preserved unchanged in every locale per the prompt
invariants.
InstallLibrariesModal — auto-install prompt that fires when an
example needs libraries:
- Title, subtitle (with the "Installing X of Y" progress
interpolation, the all-done success state, and the singular /
plural prompt explaining the requirement count).
- Per-row status badges (pending / installing… / installed /
error) plus the Wokwi-hosted-library tooltip.
- Footer buttons: Close / Skip / "Install All ({{count}})" with
loading variant.
SerialMonitor — multi-board tabbed serial console:
- Empty-state when no board is on the canvas.
- Right-side tab controls: Autoscroll checkbox, Clear button +
tooltip.
- The "(Open IoT Gateway)" inline link rendered next to detected
AP IP addresses.
- Output-area placeholders for the running-but-no-data and
before-start states.
- Send button + input placeholder (different copy for MicroPython
REPL vs raw Serial input).
- The line-ending dropdown options (None / Newline / Carriage
return / Both).
Hand-translated for all 9 locales. Hotkeys (Ctrl+C) and dropdown
values stay untranslated (constants the firmware reads).
Pending in Phase 3:
- Oscilloscope panel, custom-chip dialog, sensor control panel.
- ComponentPropertyDialog (per-component property forms).
- Admin / Profile / Project pages.
- Long-form docs prose (DocsPage 2715 lines, AboutPage long
paragraphs).
- 15 SEO landing pages (intentionally English for keyword targeting).
ComponentPickerModal — the "Add Component" dialog:
- Header (title + close button), search input placeholder + clear,
category tabs (All Components / Boards), loading + empty-state
copy, "Clear filters" button.
LibraryManagerModal — the Arduino library browser:
- Window title, Search / Installed tabs, filter input placeholder.
- Search-tab states: searching-for-query, generic loading, no
results (with optional query interpolation).
- Per-library row: "by {{author}}" caption, Install / Installing /
Uninstall / Uninstalling button labels.
- Installed-tab empty-state with the prompt to use the Search tab.
Brand and product names left untouched ("LIBRARY MANAGER" stays
all-caps in English; the localised variants follow each language's
convention for product UI titles). Hand-translated for all 9
locales.
InstallLibrariesModal still pending — it's the auto-install
prompt that fires when an example needs libraries; smaller scope
but lives in the same area.
The /examples gallery is fully localised:
- Header (heading + subtitle).
- Search input placeholder + aria-label + the clear button.
- Match-count tag with i18next pluralisation (handles _one /
_other and Russian's _few / _many).
- Category and Difficulty filter labels + their button labels
(basics / sensors / displays / communication / games / robotics
/ circuits; beginner / intermediate / advanced).
- Per-card "Copy shareable link" tooltip.
- Empty-state copy with two variants (with-search / without-
search) interpolating the search query.
- Reset-filters button.
- The library-install progress overlay copy from
ExamplesPage.tsx ("Installing libraries (N/M)") with done/total
interpolation.
Internal /editor link uses localize() so a Spanish reader who
clicks an example lands on /es/editor.
Hand-translated for all 8 non-English locales. Per-example titles
+ descriptions are NOT i18n yet — they live in the
src/data/examples* tables and would need a separate pipeline.
DocsPage (2715 lines of prose) deferred too — best handled by
running scripts/translate-i18n.mjs once the keys are extracted.
The canvas header (the bar above the simulation area) and the
"Remove board?" confirmation dialog now read from i18n.
Translated:
- Status dot tooltip (Running / Stopped).
- Active board selector tooltip + "No board" placeholder + the
hint that prompts the user to add a board.
- Undo / Redo buttons: aria-label, dynamic title with the action
description and the empty-state fallback. Action descriptions
themselves stay untranslated (they come from the editor history
store as English literals — translating them would mean reaching
into a different store; deferred).
- Serial Monitor and Oscilloscope toggles (button title + label).
- Zoom in / out / reset-view buttons.
- Component count tooltip + Add Component button.
- The error-banner Dismiss button.
- "Remove board" item in the right-click menu, with a localised
"(N wires)" parenthetical via i18next pluralisation.
- The full removal confirmation dialog: title with board label
interpolation, body copy with optional connected-wires sentence,
Cancel + Remove buttons.
Pluralisation uses i18next's _one / _other (and _few / _many for
Russian) suffixes so wire counts read naturally per language.
Hand-translated for all 8 non-English locales. Untouched (deferred):
the property dialog, custom-chip dialog, sensor control panel, and
the various inline tooltips on board pins and wire endpoints —
those are denser and benefit from a separate pass.
The three modal dialogs that fire during the editor's routine save +
share + auth-required flows are now fully localised across all 9
locales.
LoginPromptModal
- Title, body, and the three buttons (Sign in / Create account /
Cancel). Sign in / Sign up Links use localize() so a Spanish
reader prompted to log in lands at /es/login rather than dropping
back to English.
SaveProjectModal
- Title (toggles between Save / Update), name + description fields
with placeholders, save button (toggles between Save / Update /
Saving…), Cancel button.
- Visibility toggle: Public / Private label + hint copy under the
icon.
- All four error paths now go through t() with a {{status}}
interpolation for the generic HTTP failure message.
ShareModal
- Title, public/private label + hint pair, "Make private" /
"Make public" toggle, Copy button, the warning shown when the
project is private, and the Close button.
Hand-curated translations for all 8 non-English locales. Status
codes (403) and shortcut markers preserved.
FileExplorer (sidebar)
- Workspace header label and the new-workspace / save-project icon
buttons now read from t('editor.fileExplorer.*').
- Per-board section: collapse / expand toggle, status dot tooltip
(Running / Compiled / Idle), per-board "new file" button, and the
composite "<board name> — click to edit" hover title (the board
name itself stays untranslated — it's a product noun like
"Arduino Uno").
- File rows: hover title with optional "(unsaved)" suffix,
unsaved-dot tooltip, and the right-click context menu's Rename /
Delete commands.
- Empty-state placeholder when no boards are on the canvas.
- The window.confirm() shown before deleting a file now reads from
t() too, so non-English users see the prompt in their language.
FileTabs (open-tabs strip above the editor)
- Per-tab close button title and the unsaved-changes dot tooltip.
- Inline confirm dialog when closing a modified file: prompt copy,
"Close anyway" and "Cancel" buttons.
Hand-translated for all 9 locales. Hotkey hints (Ctrl+S, Strg+S)
localised per German convention; other locales keep "Ctrl+S" as the
universally-recognised label.
The top toolbar of the editor is now fully localised — compile / run /
stop / reset, the compile-all / run-all variants when multiple boards
are open, the language-mode select, libraries / import / export /
upload-firmware actions, and the missing-library hint banner.
Strings live under editor.toolbar.* in src/i18n/locales/<locale>/common.json.
Hand-translated for all 8 non-English locales. Brand and product
names (Arduino, MicroPython, Ctrl+B, .hex / .bin / .elf / .ihex,
GitHub Sponsors) preserved as-is.
Editor strings still pending: file explorer, file tabs, simulator
canvas, component picker, library manager modal, save / share /
project modals.
This is Phase 1 of multi-language support: the visible chrome (header,
footer, language switcher) and routing are wired up for all 9 locales
(en, es, pt-br, it, fr, zh-cn, de, ja, ru) — same set the blog at
velxio.dev/blog/ already supports. The Editor and the long-form
landing-page copy are still English-only and will be translated in a
follow-up.
Infrastructure
- frontend/src/i18n/config.ts: locale registry + LOCALE_META (htmlLang,
native name, og locale, dir). Mirrors pro/blog/src/i18n/config.ts so
cookie sync stays consistent.
- frontend/src/i18n/cookie.ts: read/write the velxio_locale cookie at
Path=/; Max-Age=1y; SameSite=Lax (Secure on HTTPS). The blog reads
the same cookie via an inline script in its Layout.astro.
- frontend/src/i18n/path.ts: getLocaleFromPath / stripLocaleFromPath /
localizedPath / switchLocale / blogUrlFor — match the blog's helpers
one-to-one.
- frontend/src/i18n/index.ts: i18next bootstrap. English bundle is
inlined synchronously for first paint; non-default locales are
lazy-loaded via dynamic import on demand. Initial locale is decided
in priority order URL > cookie > navigator > en.
- frontend/src/i18n/LocaleSync.tsx: top-level wrapper inside <Router>.
On every URL change loads the matching locale bundle, calls
i18n.changeLanguage, writes the cookie, and mirrors the locale onto
<html lang> and dir.
- frontend/src/i18n/useLocalizedNavigate.ts: useCurrentLocale,
useLocalizedHref, useLocalizedNavigate hooks for components that
build internal links.
Routing
- App.tsx: route table extracted to a single ROUTES array, then
registered twice — once at the root (default English) and once
nested under each non-default locale (`/<locale>/...`). Explicit
per-locale parent routes (rather than a generic `:lang` param) so
React Router never accidentally swallows a real top-level path
like `/circuit-simulator` as a locale segment.
Header / Footer
- LanguageSwitcher.tsx + .css: dropdown matching the blog's
LanguageSwitcher.astro. Globe icon + locale code on the trigger,
native names + ISO codes in the menu. Click → `switchLocale()`
rewrites the URL under the new locale; LocaleSync handles the
rest (load bundle, change language, write cookie).
- AppHeader.tsx: every nav label and the auth dropdown copy now
goes through `t('header.nav.*')`, `t('header.auth.*')`. All
internal Links wrapped with localize() so navigation stays
inside the active locale. Added a "Blog" link computed via
`blogUrlFor(currentLocale)` so /es/ → /blog/es/, etc.
- LandingPage.tsx: footer About-Velxio paragraph reads from
t('footer.about').
Translations (Phase 1 strings)
- frontend/src/i18n/locales/<locale>/common.json: nav labels, auth
buttons, footer About copy. Hand-translated for all 9 locales,
AGPLv3 / brand names preserved as-is.
Tooling
- frontend/scripts/translate-i18n.mjs: standalone Node script that
takes the en.json bundles and auto-translates them to the 8 other
locales via DeepSeek (primary) + Gemini (fallback). One LLM call
per (locale, namespace) pair. Run after extracting new strings
with `npm run translate:i18n`.
Phase 2 (deferred)
- Editor (toolbar, file explorer, simulator canvas, component picker,
library manager, error toasts) — hundreds of strings.
- Examples / Docs / About / Profile pages.
- The translate-i18n.mjs script is ready to handle these once the
strings have been extracted into JSON keys.
The hand-drawn SVGs in Bmp280Element.ts and Attiny85Element.ts were
functional but obviously amateur next to a real Fritzing-drawn part.
Both components now mount the equivalent Fritzing breadboard SVG as a
public static asset (`<image href>` in the shadow DOM SVG), with pin
coordinates remapped to the new artwork and pin-name labels overlaid
on top so the user can still read each connector at a glance.
frontend/public/component-svgs/bmp280.svg (new)
Verbatim copy of third-party/fritzing-parts/svg/core/breadboard/
bmp180_breadboard.svg. The Adafruit BMP180 breakout is the
mechanically identical Bosch predecessor — same I2C interface,
same 4-pin pinout. Pin labels lifted from the matching .fzp.
frontend/public/component-svgs/attiny85.svg (new)
Verbatim copy of the Fritzing ATtiny85 DIP-8 breadboard art.
Bmp280Element.ts
Width 80×100 px (Fritzing aspect 28.35:35.43 ≈ 0.8:1, exact uniform
scale of 2.822 px/mm). Pin coords for SDA / SCL / GND / VCC matched
to the connector centres in the source SVG. Pin labels overlaid on
top. Existing wired example (esp32-bmp280) re-routes automatically
because the wire system reads coords by pin name from pinInfo.
Attiny85Element.ts
Width 160×132 px (Fritzing aspect 28.801:23.768 ≈ 1.21:1, exact
uniform scale of 5.555 px/mm). The Fritzing layout puts pins on the
TOP and BOTTOM edges (4 each), not LEFT and RIGHT like the older
hand-drawn version. Pin coords land on clean numbers
(x ∈ {20, 60, 100, 140}, y ∈ {6, 126}). Built-in LED on PB1 stays
as an overlaid circle outside the chip body.
Wires in the existing attiny85-* examples re-route automatically by
pin name; external components positioned to the right of the chip
may need a manual nudge for clean routing — but they work.
frontend/src/components/simulator/BoardOnCanvas.tsx
attiny85: { w: 160, h: 100 } → { w: 160, h: 132 } to match the new
aspect ratio. Same width as before so the chip occupies the same
horizontal slot in existing example layouts.
scripts/component-overrides.json
BMP280 thumbnail updated to mirror the Fritzing colour scheme
(dark blue PCB, BMP180 silkscreen, four gold connector circles)
so picker and canvas feel consistent.
frontend/public/components-metadata.json
Regenerated.
docs/THIRD_PARTY.md
New "Fritzing parts library" section. Both new assets are listed
with their upstream paths plus the CC-BY-SA licence and link to
the parts repo. Future Fritzing copies must be added there too.

Beta testers saw raw `[0;32m` and `[0m` text mixed into the serial
monitor for several ESP32 examples. Those are ANSI SGR escapes the
ESP-IDF logger emits to color INFO/WARN lines on a real terminal. Our
<pre> renders them literally because there was no ANSI handling in
the path.
Strip the SGR sequences (`\x1b\[[0-9;]*m`) before the IP-linkifier so
the user only sees plain text. Combined with the sdkconfig change that
drops the default log level to WARN, the ESP32 output is now as clean
as the AVR output.

Replaces the window.confirm("Delete X?") modal with a footer that flips
into a "Delete X?" prompt + Cancel / Delete pair when the user arms the
delete. Less jarring on mobile (no native dialog), keeps the user's
flow inside the property panel.
The two hand-rolled curved-arrow SVGs I drew in bd5fd18 looked off — the
arrowheads were misaligned and the curve clipped at the bottom of the
viewBox. Swapped both for the canonical lucide-react icons (Undo2 /
Redo2), which match the visual weight + alignment of the rest of the
toolbar.
lucide-react was already in the OSS deps (added when other parts of the
app started using it). No new dependency.

UI-facing half of the undo/redo feature. Combined with the previous two
commits, Ctrl+Z (or the toolbar button) now reverses every canvas
mutation: add/remove component, move, rotate, set property, add/remove
wire.
EditorPage.tsx:
- New window-keydown effect for Ctrl+Z / Ctrl+Y / Ctrl+Shift+Z (and the
Cmd equivalents). Uses the same input/textarea/contenteditable guard
as the existing Ctrl+S handler — Monaco's per-file undo and the AI
chat composer keep their own behaviour.
SimulatorCanvas.tsx:
- Two icon buttons (undo + redo) added to the canvas header, between
the board selector and the Serial Monitor toggle. Tooltip surfaces
the next command's description ("Undo: Add LED (Ctrl+Z)") so the
user knows exactly what's about to revert. Buttons disable when the
stack is empty in that direction.
- New `canvas-icon-btn` CSS class for square 32×32 icon-only buttons
(matches the visual weight of the existing Serial button without
the label).
- Subscribes to history / historyIndex via store selectors so the
buttons re-render reactively as commands are pushed/undone.
No new tests — the store-level coverage from 99ed22b already exercises
undo/redo round trips. UI affordances are wired pass-through to those
store APIs.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Wires every user-initiated canvas mutation in SimulatorCanvas to the
recorded variants added in 99ed22b, so Ctrl+Z (next commit) can roll
each one back as a single step.
Routed through record*:
- handleSelectComponent (picker → add) → recordAddComponent
- Delete keyboard handler (selectedComponentId branch) → recordRemoveComponent
- handleRotateComponent → recordRotate (still mutates live via
updateComponent so the rotation visually applies; record stores the
prev/next angles for undo)
- Drag → recordMove on mouseup. Captures component.x/y at mousedown in
a new dragStartPosRef and only records on actual drag-end (skips the
click branch that just opens the property dialog).
- Pin-click "finish wire" path → calls finishWireCreation (which
atomically appends the wire) then pushes a CanvasCommand for that
wire with applyNow:false (state is already at post-add).
- Selected-wire delete (keyboard + SelectionActionBar + PinPickerDialog)
→ recordRemoveWire
- Selection action bar component delete → recordRemoveComponent
- Pin picker dialog component delete → recordRemoveComponent
- ComponentPropertyDialog onPropertyChange → updateComponent applies
live, then recordSetProperty captures prev/next so Ctrl+Z reverts the
value without re-running the raw mutation.
Cleaned up unused destructures of addComponent / removeComponent /
removeWire from the original useSimulatorStore() call — every call site
now uses the record* equivalents.
No new keyboard shortcuts or toolbar buttons in this commit; that's
landing next.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Implemented PinPickerDialog for selecting pins on touch devices.
- Added SelectionActionBar for managing selected items with touch actions.
- Created WireModeBanner to provide feedback during wire creation.
- Introduced useTouchDevice utility for detecting coarse pointer input.
- Refactored WireLayer to utilize useIsCoarsePointer for touch detection.
Changes that ship to OSS — all benign for self-hosters, but most are
extension points the velxio-prod overlay (and any private fork) needs to
plug an in-editor AI chat into the page.
Editor:
- 3-way view-mode toggle (code / both / circuit) in the unified toolbar.
Lets users hide a pane to give a right-docked sidebar (e.g. the AI
chat overlay) more breathing room. Persisted in useEditorStore.
- Default file explorer narrower (210 → 165 px); min 110.
- Removed the redundant `tb-board-pill` (icon + "Editing: X" tooltip);
the BoardSelector dropdown elsewhere already shows the active board.
- Inlined Import/Export/Upload-firmware buttons; the 3-dot overflow
menu gave up too much discoverability. Removed dead overflow state.
Simulator:
- Fix: global Delete/Backspace handler in SimulatorCanvas no longer
fires when the event target is an INPUT/TEXTAREA/SELECT/contentEditable
— affected any in-page text field, not just the chat overlay.
Overlay extensibility:
- New `data-velxio-slot="agent-chat"` at the bottom of EditorPage so
pro overlays can portal a chat panel into the editor without
forking the page.
- vite.config.ts: preserveSymlinks=true when VITE_PRO_BUILD is set.
Lets local-dev junctions (overlay tree → frontend/src/pro) resolve
bare imports back to the OSS node_modules without resolving symlinks.
Deps:
- Added react-markdown + remark-gfm (rendered chat output) and
@google/genai + zod (overlay agent loop). Tree-shaken from the OSS
bundle when no pro code imports them.
gitignore:
- Ignore backend/app/pro/ and frontend/src/pro/ junctions used by
developers running a private overlay against the OSS dev server.

The PNG fallbacks were carrying 80% of the gallery's bundled weight
(16 MB of 20 MB) and serving virtually no traffic — WebP is supported
on ~97% of in-use browsers, and the few hold-outs (very old Safari)
fall through to the CircuitPreview SVG mock via the existing onError
handler. No visual regression for modern browsers.
Numbers:
- before: 258 files, ~20 MB total
- after: 129 files, ~3.6 MB total (avg 28.6 KB / WebP)
ExampleThumbnail simplified: drops the <picture>/<source> wrap around
the WebP <source> + PNG fallback, just renders the WebP <img> directly
with onError → CircuitPreview.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replaces the manually-positioned wokwi-element mock (CircuitPreview) in
the /examples gallery with real screenshots of the actual simulator
canvas, so each card shows the example's boards + components + wires
exactly as they appear when you open the example.
How it works
- A new <ExampleThumbnail> component tries
/examples-thumbs/<id>.{webp,png} first. If the image 404s — or no
thumbnail has been captured yet — it falls back to the existing
CircuitPreview component. No-op for examples without a screenshot.
- ExamplesGallery and ExampleDetailPage now render <ExampleThumbnail>
instead of CircuitPreview directly.
- Explicit example.thumbnail field still wins (kept the existing
override path in case someone wants a custom asset).
Capture pipeline
- Generated by velxio-prod's scripts/capture-example-thumbs.mjs
(Playwright + sharp). For each example: opens /examples/<slug>,
clicks "Open in Simulator", waits for [data-board-id] elements,
computes the bbox of all boards + components, sets a transform on
.canvas-world to center and fit them with 12% padding inside the
canvas viewport, screenshots .canvas-content, and re-encodes to
600x360 @2x DPI as .png + .webp.
This commit ships the first batch (102 of ~129 examples — the rest
will follow once the capture completes; missing slugs gracefully
fall back to CircuitPreview in the meantime).

Foundation
- Add 7 token CSS files in src/tokens/ — semantic colors, 4-pt spacing,
Apple-HIG type ramp, radius/elevation/motion/z-index scales.
- Refactor src/index.css to import tokens and remap legacy aliases
(--accent, --bg, etc.) onto the new --color-* semantics so existing
components keep rendering during migration.
- Drop the duplicate font-family from src/App.css; body inherits from :root.
- Global *:focus-visible ring backed by --color-focus-ring (WCAG 2.4.7).
Webfonts (self-hosted)
- Add Inter.var.woff2 (variable, OFL) and JetBrainsMono.var.woff2 to
public/fonts/. Preloaded in index.html with crossorigin.
- Old stack -apple-system kept as fallback so Mac users still get SF Pro.
- Fixes cross-OS rendering inconsistency (Win/Linux/Android were falling
back to Segoe UI / Roboto, breaking the type grid).
Component primitives
- New src/components/ui/{Button,Card,Input}.tsx + .css. Built on the
semantic tokens, ready for incremental migration of .ap-* CSS classes.
Lucide icons
- Replace 6 inline SVG icon components in LandingPage (IcoChip / IcoCpu /
IcoCode / IcoZap / IcoLayers / IcoMonitor) with lucide-react imports.
Aliased so call sites are unchanged. ~80 lines of inline SVG removed.
- IcoGitHub kept bespoke (filled glyph, brand-correct).
Marketing assets
- Convert top 8 boards to transparent PNG + WebP at 1x / 2x:
Arduino Uno, Nano, Mega 2560, Pi Pico, Pi Pico W, ESP32-C3,
ESP32-DevKit-V1, XIAO ESP32-S3.
- Migrate matching cards in LandingPage and Velxio2Page to <picture>
with WebP > PNG > SVG fallback. Other 8 boards keep <img src=*.svg>
for now (Raspberry Pi 3B, ESP32-CAM, etc.).
- Refresh og-image.png — same canonical URL, new content (4 hero boards
+ branding instead of generic logo card).
- Fix latent bug in LandingPage: ESP32 DevKit V1 card was loading
esp32-devkit-c-v4.svg; now uses esp32-devkit-v1.{webp,png,svg}.
Build verified: npm run build:docker succeeds, 246 SEO pages prerender.

Three small additions so private overlays can add components gated behind
a paid subscription without forking the picker:
- types/component-metadata.ts: optional pro_only?: boolean field on
ComponentMetadata. Self-hosters never set it; picker behaves identically.
- services/componentRegistry.ts: new mergeComponents() public method.
Pro overlay calls this after the default registry has loaded to splice
in extra components (replacing any with the same id).
- components/ComponentPickerModal.tsx: when a pro_only component is
clicked, the picker first calls window.__velxio_pro_gate__(component)
if defined. If the gate returns true, the click is consumed (overlay
shows an upgrade modal). If absent or returns false, the click passes
through to onSelectComponent as normal.
Net upstream change: ~25 lines, all backwards-compatible. OSS image
behaves exactly as before since no overlay sets pro_only or installs
the gate.
Three small markers (each one HTML attribute) so private overlays can
portal-inject UI into well-defined places without forking the upstream
component:
- AppHeader user dropdown: data-velxio-slot="user-menu"
Lets overlays add menu items between "My projects" and "Sign out"
(e.g. a Privacy / opt-out item).
- AdminPage tab bar: data-velxio-slot="admin-tabs"
Lets overlays add extra tabs alongside Dashboard / Users / Projects /
Boards (e.g. a Pro Analytics tab).
- AdminPage tab content area: data-velxio-slot="admin-tab-content"
Sibling div where overlay tab content can portal-render.
Generic markers, no overlay-specific code in upstream. Anyone with
private extensions can use them. The OSS build is otherwise unchanged.

Three small, backwards-compatible hooks let anyone with private features
(velxio.dev's analytics, custom integrations, paid tiers, …) layer them
on top of the open-source build without forking files.
Backend (app/main.py):
- After standard router registration, try-import an optional `app.pro`
module exposing `register_pro(app)`. ImportError is silently swallowed
(the OSS image doesn't ship `app.pro`, so this is a no-op there).
Frontend:
- EditorToolbar: new optional `rightSlot` prop renders extra elements
after the built-in right-group buttons (mirrors the existing
`centerSlot` pattern).
- main.tsx: dynamic `import('@pro/index')` gated by VITE_PRO_BUILD env.
When unset (OSS build), the branch is dead-code-eliminated and no pro
chunk is emitted.
- vite.config.ts: `@pro` alias resolves to `src/__pro_stub__/` by default.
Private builds set `VITE_PRO_BUILD=true` and `PRO_OVERLAY_PATH=<path>`
to point at their real overlay tree.
- src/__pro_stub__/index.ts: 1-line no-op `mountPro` so TypeScript and
Vite resolvers stay happy in OSS builds.
Verified: `npm run build:docker` succeeds; `npm test` passes 1161/1162;
the OSS bundle (43 MB) contains zero references to `__pro_stub__`,
`@pro`, or `pro/index` (verified via `grep dist/`).

Resolves several install pain points reported by users (#108, #120) and
removes the obligatory upstream-clone step that confused contributors and
slowed down every Docker build.
Install fixes:
- nginx: server_name → catch-all default_server, drop Debian's stock site
so reverse-proxied users no longer get the "Welcome to nginx" page.
- entrypoint: auto-generate SECRET_KEY at first boot, persisted under
data/.secret_key. backend/.env is now optional in docker-compose.yml.
- backend: add greenlet>=3.0.0 (SQLAlchemy async dep that was missing on
some Python builds — caused uvicorn startup failures on WSL).
Wokwi libs come from npm:
- @wokwi/elements 1.9.2, avr8js 0.21.0, rp2040js 1.3.2 are pinned in
frontend/package.json. Vite aliases removed.
- Dockerfile.standalone no longer clones avr8js / rp2040js / wokwi-elements
/ wokwi-boards. Frontend stage is just COPY + npm install + build:docker.
- Board SVGs vendored under frontend/public/boards/ (10 deduped against
existing files, 2 truly new). third-party/wokwi-* clones become reference-
only credits — generate-component-metadata.ts skips gracefully when absent.
Production config split out:
- docker-compose.prod.yml, deploy/nginx.prod.conf, nginx-host-velxio*.conf,
update-third-party.bat removed. Production deployment lives in its own
repo: https://github.com/velxio/velxio-prod (host nginx + HTTPS + backups
+ pinned upstream commit).
Verified locally: 1161 frontend tests pass, build:docker completes clean.

The directory grew well beyond Wokwi-only contents: it now hosts
lcgamboa's QEMU fork (qemu-lcgamboa), Espressif's esp32-camera, the
ngspice WASM build, fritzing-parts, picowi, an alternative QEMU
(qemu-esp32), the 100_Days_100_IoT_Projects examples repo, and
Wokwi's own avr8js/rp2040js/wokwi-elements/wokwi-features/wokwi-boards.
"wokwi-libs" was misleading — half the contents have nothing to do
with Wokwi. "third-party/" is the standard convention for vendored
external dependencies.
Mechanical changes:
Path rename:
wokwi-libs/ → third-party/
update-wokwi-libs.bat → update-third-party.bat
docs/WOKWI_LIBS.md → docs/THIRD_PARTY.md
Submodule reconfiguration:
.gitmodules — 4 path= and section names updated
.git/modules/wokwi-libs/ → .git/modules/third-party/
each submodule's .git file rewired to ../../.git/modules/third-party/<name>
Reference updates (~80 files): vite.config.ts aliases, Dockerfile
COPY paths, GH Actions workflow steps, build_qemu_*.sh, all
docs/* and test/*/autosearch/* entries that mention the path,
package-lock.json file: dependencies, .gitignore patterns,
sitemap.xml + index.html SEO blurbs, scripts/generate-component-*,
.dockerignore, .idea/vcs.xml. Bulk replaced both `wokwi-libs/`
(path) and bare `wokwi-libs` (textual mentions in docs/comments).
Verified:
- npx tsc -b --noEmit produces no new errors related to these paths
- vite.config.ts aliases now point at ../third-party/avr8js etc.
- All 4 git submodules (avr8js, rp2040js, wokwi-elements,
wokwi-features) are linked under third-party/ with their
worktrees re-populated and config files referencing the new path
- `grep -r wokwi-libs` returns zero hits outside node_modules,
.vite, frontend/dist, third-party/ (upstream submodule contents),
*.pyc caches, and *.dll.pre-camera rollback binaries

User goal: ESP32-CAM live preview that works with any webcam,
regardless of resolution, brand, or scene complexity. The previous
fixed-quality 0.28 was fragile (intermittent decode errors on
moving/textured scenes) and capped visual quality unnecessarily.
Two-layer fix; either alone is insufficient:
LAYER A — Bounded JPEG encoder (frontend, this repo)
frontend/src/hooks/useWebcamFrames.ts:
encodeBoundedJpeg() walks a quality ladder [0.6, 0.5, ..., 0.1]
until the JPEG fits in MAX_FRAME_BYTES (23 000). If even q=0.1
overshoots — extreme HD/4K scenes — falls back to a 240×180
downscaled canvas at q=0.4. Guarantees every emitted frame fits
the deliverable budget regardless of webcam hardware.
The hook now exposes lastQualityUsed + lastDownscaled so UI can
surface when auto-tuning kicks in.
frontend/src/components/simulator/CameraToggle.tsx:
Tooltip shows "(auto-tuned to q=0.X)" or "(auto-downscaled, q=0.X)"
while streaming so users see what the encoder picked.
LAYER B — Multi-lap descriptor ring walker (qemu-lcgamboa, submodule)
Bumps the QEMU per-frame deliverable cap from 8 KiB to ~32 KiB by
letting the walker reset the descriptor ring up to 4 times per
VSYNC. Submodule pointer bumped to eb8b7a5d.
Combined, the demo now supports:
- Cheap 480p webcams: q=0.6, 5-10 KiB JPEGs, sharp
- Logitech mid-range: q=0.5-0.6, 8-15 KiB JPEGs, sharp
- HD 1080p webcams: q=0.4-0.6, 15-23 KiB JPEGs, sharp
- 4K complex scenes: downscaled, still readable

Adds two listed examples to the gallery (book icon → Examples) so
users can one-click load the new ESP32-CAM emulation:
1. ESP32-CAM: Webcam Demo (sensors / beginner)
Minimal sketch — init OV2640, verify SCCB chip-id, loop on
esp_camera_fb_get() printing frame metadata to Serial. Proves
the emulation is alive without any external components.
2. ESP32-CAM + ILI9341 Live Preview (displays / intermediate)
Full demo — decode JPEG with jpg2rgb565() (built-in to
esp32-camera/conversions, header exposed by the Velxio compile
template) and render the resulting RGB565 bitmap to a 320×240
SPI TFT. Pre-wired diagram: ILI9341 connected via VSPI to GPIOs
12-15 (the only block free after OV2640 takes over the rest of
the AI-Thinker pins).
Type changes:
- ExampleProject.boardType union extended with 'esp32-cam'
- BOARD_TABS in ExamplesGallery.tsx gets a new "ESP32-CAM" tab
(orange #d35400)
Both examples use boardFilter: 'esp32-cam' so they show under
the new tab and not the generic ESP32 one.

First open-source end-to-end emulation of the AI-Thinker ESP32-CAM
in QEMU, paired with a browser webcam → firmware bridge so users can
develop camera sketches without hardware. Status: esp_camera_init()
returns ESP_OK; OV2640 chip-id verifies (PID/VER/MIDH/MIDL exactly
match the datasheet); GPIO 25 VSYNC NEGEDGE interrupt enabled by
the upstream driver. Final piece (cam_task accepting frames) is in
progress — descriptor walker fix landed in this commit.
Backend (Python/FastAPI):
- simulation.py: camera_attach/frame/detach WS handlers
- esp32_worker.py: ctypes binding to velxio_push_camera_frame +
feature-detection fallback for older DLLs
- esp32_lib_manager.py: forward camera commands to the worker stdin
- esp-idf-template/main/CMakeLists.txt: esp32-camera headers added
via add_prebuilt_library + REQUIRES driver (resolves i2c_master_*
symbols). LED_BUILTIN=2 fallback for sketches that hardcode it.
Frontend (React/TS):
- EditorToolbar.tsx: ESP32-CAM (and the rest of the ESP32 family)
added to isQemuBoard list — Run button now starts the QEMU bridge
for these boards instead of falling through to the AVR path
- useWebcamFrames.ts: getUserMedia → OffscreenCanvas →
toBlob('image/jpeg') → base64 → WS at ~10 fps
- CameraToggle.tsx: header button with status colors + frame counter
- SimulatorCanvas.tsx: render CameraToggle for esp32-cam boards
- Esp32Bridge.ts: sendCameraAttach/Frame/Detach + chunked btoa
- useSimulatorStore.ts: diagnostic log on compileBoardProgram
- components-metadata.json: regen including esp32-cam component
Submodule pointer:
- wokwi-libs/qemu-lcgamboa → ff8eee0 (camera devices commit on
davidmonterocrespo24/qemu-lcgamboa branch picsimlab-esp32)
Investigation + tests in test/test-esp32-cam/:
- 13 autosearch markdown docs (overview, SOTA, OV2640 spec, DVP/I2S
spec, build blueprint, blockers resolved, descriptor walker fix)
- 5 sketches (camera_init, sccb_probe, dma_smoke, frame_roundtrip,
webcam_demo) + 8 live + WS regression tests
- README with the user-facing flow
.gitignore:
- libqemu-*.dll.{pre-camera,new,bak} (rollback points, regenerated)
- wokwi-libs/esp32-camera/ (clone consumed by arduino-esp32 path,
not part of this repo)

The project save/load pipeline only persisted a single `board_type`, so
multi-board workspaces silently lost every board except the active one
on save, and wires referencing the dropped boards' IDs orphaned to the
canvas corner on reload. An audit of the production backup found 74/306
projects (24%) with at least one orphaned wire and 174/301 non-trivial
projects whose code was still the default Blink template — strong signal
that users save once and never re-save.
Backend
- Add `boards_json` column on `projects` with idempotent ALTER TABLE in
the lifespan migration list.
- New `FileGroup` schema + `file_groups` array on
ProjectCreate/Update/Response. Legacy `files`/`code` kept for back-compat.
- `project_files.py` now uses `{pid}/{groupId}/{filename}` subdirs via
`read_groups`/`write_groups`. Legacy flat layouts are auto-promoted on
read; legacy single-list `files` only updates the active group, leaving
other boards' files intact.
- `_persist_files_from_body` honors file_groups → files → code priority.
Frontend
- `useSimulatorStore.addBoard` accepts an optional `explicitId` so
saved board IDs can be restored verbatim (wires reference IDs literally).
- New `loadProjectState({boards, fileGroups, components, wires,
activeBoardId})` action: tears down current boards, recreates from the
payload, restores file groups atomically, recalculates wire positions
on the next frame, and refreshes the Interconnect.
- `useEditorStore.replaceFileGroups` for atomic multi-group restore.
- `SaveProjectModal` and `ProjectByIdPage`/`ProjectPage` now go through
`buildSavePayload` / `buildLoadPayload` (handles pre-backfill projects
by synthesising a default board from `board_type`).
Auto-save (#useAutoSaveProject hook)
- 2.5s debounced silent PUT triggered ONLY when an authenticated user
has a `currentProject` with a UUID. State hash detects real changes
vs. UI-only churn; baseline is reset on project load so the just-loaded
state isn't immediately re-saved.
- `beforeunload` flush via `fetch keepalive: true` (supports PUT +
credentials, survives unload).
- Compact status indicator in `AppHeader` (idle/dirty/saving/saved/error).
Backfill script (one-off, idempotent)
- `backend/scripts/backfill_boards_2026_05.py` populates `boards_json`
for legacy projects. Heuristic per project, based on which board IDs
the wires reference:
Case A — wires only ref 'arduino-uno' but board_type ≠ uno:
rename id→board_type and rewrite wire endpoints.
Case B — single-board normal: keep verbatim.
Case C — multi-board: recreate one board per distinct ref, infer
kind by stripping trailing -N suffix.
Also moves any flat files into the active board's group subdir.
Stdlib-only, runs from host or `docker exec`.
Docker
- `Dockerfile.standalone` now copies `backend/scripts/` into the image
so the backfill is callable via `docker exec velxio-app python
/app/scripts/backfill_boards_2026_05.py --apply`.
Verified locally on the restored production backup (363 projects):
33 Case A, 316 Case B, 14 Case C, 135 wire endpoints renamed, 0 orphans.
Re-running the script after apply skips all 363 (idempotent).

fix: increase timeout for compilation requests to 180 seconds
refactor: call recalculateAllWirePositions after loading examples
chore: update subproject commit for rp2040js to dirty state
chore: update subproject commit for wokwi-elements to dirty state
Electrical simulation is now active by default (mode='spice' instead of
'off') — users no longer need to toggle the mode on manually. The engine
lazy-loads on first solve, so there is no startup cost penalty.
Changes:
- useElectricalStore: default mode = 'spice' when ELECTRICAL_SIM_ENABLED
- subscribeToStore: ADC_PIN_MAP expanded to all 18 board types (Uno, Nano,
Mega with 16 ADC channels, ATtiny85, RP2040 GP26-29, ESP32/S3/C3 GPIO
ADCs). Voltages from SPICE solutions now inject into MCU ADC peripherals
for all boards.

is active. Brightness = clamp(|I_led| / 20mA, 0, 1) instead of boolean.
Subscribes to store changes to update in real time.
- ElectricalOverlay: shows per-wire voltage labels (gold monospace on dark
pill) using buildWireNetMap() which replicates the NetlistBuilder's
Union-Find to map wireId -> netName -> nodeVoltage. Summary pill shows
net count + solve time.
- NetlistBuilder: new export buildWireNetMap() for lightweight wire-to-net
resolution without running ngspice.

Adds 44 SPICE mappers, 58 custom metadata entries, and 12 visual
Web Components covering logic gates, transistors, op-amps, regulators,
sources, electromechanical parts and integrated-circuit packaging.

- 8 multi-input gates (AND/OR/NAND/NOR with 3 and 4 inputs)
- 9 transistors: 5 BJTs (incl. PNP 2N3906/BC557) + 4 MOSFETs (incl.
P-channel IRF9540/FQP27P06). NMOS refactored from Level=3 W=0.1
(hangs ngspice) to Level=1 with sane W/L
- 5 op-amps: LM358, LM741, TL072, LM324 with per-chip saturation
rails + opamp-ideal
- 4 linear regulators (7805, 7812, 7905, LM317) with dropout

flyback diode, inverted-control trick for the NC contact
- Optocouplers 4N25 and PC817 (LED + CCCS with CTR=0.5 / 1.0)
- 7 74HC ICs as DIP-14 packages emitting 4 or 6 B-sources per
component (first mapper pattern emitting multiple device cards)
- 3 flip-flops (D, T, JK) — digital-sim only (edge detection is
not representable in ngspice .op)
- L293D dual H-bridge motor driver
Infrastructure
--------------
- scripts/component-overrides.json gains a _customComponents[] array
that lets new Velxio-only parts survive metadata regeneration
(previously applyOverrides() could only patch wokwi-elements
components that had already been scanned)
- scripts/generate-component-metadata.ts injects custom entries
before the patch loop
- New ComponentCategory values: 'logic', 'analog', 'electromech'
- frontend/src/components/DynamicComponent.tsx PASSIVE tracing
extended from just ['resistor','resistor-us'] to 9 two-terminal
passives with per-part pin name maps
- New CI workflow test-circuit.yml runs the sandbox on push/PR
- frontend-tests.yml regenerates metadata and fails if committed
JSON is stale
- Documented 2 new ngspice gotchas in circuit-emulation-gotchas.md:
unicode in netlist titles silently hangs the parser, and
MOSFET Level=3 + W=0.1m causes .op to hang
- 164/164 sandbox tests passing in ~9 s (was 88 pre-fase-9)

refactor: Update wiring examples for E32 OLED integration; correct pin mappings for VCC, GND, DATA, and CLK
test: Improve unit tests for ESPIDFCompiler; add scenarios for library resolution and CMake patching
chore: Mark subproject commits as dirty for wokwi-libs
Two bugs causing "can't save project" reports:
1. SaveProjectModal: validate currentProject.id is a real UUID before
calling updateProject. If id is "none" or any non-UUID string, fall
through to createProject instead, avoiding PUT /api/projects/none.
2. ProjectByIdPage: call clearCurrentProject() when the project fetch
fails (404/403/error). Prevents stale project IDs from a previous
session polluting the store and triggering spurious update calls.
Two bugs fixed:
1. SaveProjectModal was reading from the legacy global `files` array instead
of the active board's file group, causing projects to be saved with the
wrong board_type (e.g. 'arduino-uno' for ESP32 projects).
Now reads from fileGroups[activeBoard.activeFileGroupId] and uses
activeBoard.boardKind for board_type.
2. Error handling was always showing "Save failed." — now shows:
- "Server unreachable. Check your connection and try again." for network errors
- "Not authenticated. Please log in and try again." for 401 responses
- The server's detail message (with status code) for other errors
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Frontend WiFi detection via file-content scanning was unreliable because
fileGroups[board.activeFileGroupId] could be an empty array (not null),
bypassing the ?? fallback to editorState.files.
Fix: the ESP-IDF compiler now returns has_wifi:bool in its compile response.
The frontend stores this on the BoardInstance and uses it in startBoard()
instead of scanning file contents. The file-content scan is kept as a
fallback for boards that haven't been compiled in this session.

- Adds Esp32Bridge.hasFirmware() helper used by the store check
